Title: Hierarchical Deterministic Wallet with Bip39 standard for BTC & ETH
Post by: balteck on December 01, 2018, 12:59:54 PM
Hello everyone, I'm looking for a Botcoin wallet for Desktop and mobile (Android/iOS) that uses BIP39 mnemonic protocol, that I'm already using form y ethereum wallets. My goal is to have only 12 words for both worlds.

For what I see, Ethereum usually uses a BIP39 with a derivation path m/44'/60'/0'/0 that I tested on Metmask, Trezor, Jaxx, Cipher and Trust.
Same seed, same wallets on every device (about 20 addresses)

Bitcoin uses a Bip39 with derivation path m/44'/0'/0' for legacy address, m/49'/0'/0' for p2sh-segwit and m/84'/0'/0' for native segwit.
I've tried Electrum on desktop and it imports my 12 words seed and it creates 20 BTC address of my choice (1..., 3.... or bc1....)
I've tried Electrum on Android, but it refuses to use my 12 words
I've tried Mycellium or Samourai for Android, but they import my 12 words and create only 1 address


Is it possible to have the other derivation adresses on Mycellium or Samourai?
Or is there an alternative wallet for Desktop and mobile that I can use my 12 BIP39 seed words and have all my BTC addresses?

Or maybe better a multi currency wallet that create ETH (with ERC20 support) and BTC addresses from the same seed ?

I thank you in advance for any help

You may take a look at Coinomi or Breadwallet wallet for your Android device. Both have BIP39 if I am correct.

They will supply you with a new address when the previous one is actually used. You can enter the seed into this - https://iancoleman.io/bip39/  and see future addresses. Obviously only do that a long, long way offline with a live seed.
